Hey Otto, (and also all the mates here of course), after having seen your previous post, maybe i got something special for you. If you're interested about it, here you can see a piece of testimony: Bill Millin, the Lord Lovat personal piper, playing Blue bonnets over the border on Pegasus bridge, some years after the end of WW2, for the French documentary by Henry de Turenne and Daniel Costelle "Les grandes batailles" (The great battles).

As Lord Lovat say some seconds before (in a very fine French), it was for alerting the Allies there and also for giving his men some courage under fire.

The story say that German snipers didn't shoot Millin because they believe that he was crazy. Well, i guess that, for doing this, maybe it was not necessary to be crazy, but courageous as a soldier and stubborn as a Scottish…

Respect, Mister Millin…

Well, this one will not make nobody younger, because it was one year before Germany wins the world cup facing the Netherlands of Cruyff and Neeskens... Well, it's the kind of "old thing" which remain good to hear... :gj:
